In Gentoo Prefix we go by Apple's convention to give modules the .bundle
extension.

in case it disappears also, the relevant quote:

Bundle. Bundles are executable files that can be loaded at runtime by
other products. Plug-ins are implemented using bundles. The term bundle
in this context refers to the binary itself, not to a structured
hierarchy. Bundles have the .bundle extension; for example,
MyBundle.bundle.)
